Apt 2, Victoria Street, Kirkwall

EmmaRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Absolutely wonderful stay in a really comfortable flat. Hazel and John were very attentive hosts, and extremely responsive to messages. The flat itself was really comfortably kitted out, with plenty of hot water and high pressure showers/baths, a decently stocked kitchen for self-catering equipment, comfortable beds and pillows (a must!) and a great central location. Only tiny adjustment would have been a decently bright reading light in the living room area, as while the lighting was very comfortably ambient for relaxing it didn’t allow for late-night reading. Overall a truly wonderful stay! Thank you!

This is an outstanding accomodation option for a quiet, comfortable and convenient stay in Kirkwall to explore the Orkney Islands from. A home away from home!! Clean, tidy and hosts were so helpful being more than willing to help with any queries at any time. Walking distance to town, peaceful and a beautifully kept garden to enjoy. I would definitely return again on my next visit. Thank you Tara and Kerry 😊.

Peedie Allegar self catering, Orphir, Orkney

HelenaRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Louise made us feel right at home with breakfast goodies for our first morning and lots of attention to detail. The apartment was beautifully set out, comfortable and very clean. It was well stocked and infact was the first place in 8 weeks that we cooked a meal because it was so well set up. The beds were very comfortable and the shower pressure was terrific. Location was excellent, only 15min from the ferry and from Kirkwall, but very peaceful. We loved it. Thank you Louise and Victor.

Ticketyboo Apartment 4

ChristopherRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
We cannot recommend the Ticketyboo apartment highly enough. It's modern, well-equipped, very comfortable, perfectly placed within Kirkwall - near the waterfront and High Street - and close to the bus station where there are regular buses to everywhere on Orkney Mainland.
A spacious king size bed is dressed in a dark quilt with floral embroidery. Two bedside tables with lamps flank the bed, and soft light streams through a nearby window. A sofa bed is positioned against the wall, providing additional seating.

Modern flat located in the centre of Kirkwall

YiRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Lovely location right where the action is. Kitchenette was functional and we were able to do some cooking. Bedroom had a window which was bright but Tara was quick to get it taped up so that the room was nice and dark for sleep (really bright in summer!). Very helpful in helping us get last min car rental too. Thanks for a very memorable stay in the Orkneys!

A beautiful loft apartment

ChristyRating, 5 stars9 months ago
We stayed in the Loft. It was fantastic and cozy fireplace, full kitchen and comfy beds. There is a sweet cat on site always looking for a head scratch and just down the road is a standing stone, sandy (I’ll be it cold lol) beach, and ruins just behind the church. Stunning location and amazing owners. They really care about what they do and are quick with support and enthusiasm for the area. Would happily book this place again and again.

The Studio

AdrienneRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Situated in the heart of the picturesque port of Stromness, the Studio combines convenience for shops and restaurants with a tranquil ambiance. It provides a perfect base for exploring the stunning Orkney landscape and its amazing archaeological sites. Comfortable, very cosy and spotlessly clean, the Sudio is well equipped and we appreciated the display of local information and the well stocked bookcase, also the provision of some basic groceries for our arrival Àine was very friendly and welcoming, and available when needed. We would whole heartedly recommend this place as a perfect Orkney holiday location.
A bright bedroom features a sunlit yellow wall and a spacious bed dressed in white linens with two blue accent pillows. A small bedside table sits next to the bed, and a sunflower artwork adorns the wall above. Shelves are provided for additional storage.
